Frequently Asked Questions
How Do Wall Panelling Kits Work?
Our wall panelling kits come with pre-cut panels or strips of material that are designed to be assembled on the wall. They feature all the parts required to assemble the specific design you choose. Installation involves arranging the panels according to the predetermined layout and securing them to the wall with adhesive, pins, or other fasteners.
Some of our panelling kits will require cutting to length if you wish to change the layout. They may also require mitre cuts depending on the design chosen.
What Are Your Wall Panelling Kits Made From?
Our wall panelling kits are made from moisture-resistant MDF (Medium-Density Fibreboard). MDF is a popular choice due to its smooth finish, durability, and moisture resistance. It can also be easily painted or finished to match any décor.
Can I Install Your Wall Panelling Kits Myself?
Yes, these kits are designed for self-installation and are suitable for DIY enthusiasts of varying skill levels. The panels are pre-cut to size, reducing the need for extensive cutting or measuring.
What Tools Will I Need to Install the Panelling Kits?
Basic tools required for installation typically include a strong adhesive suitable for MDF, a spirit level to ensure panels are aligned, a measuring tape, and possibly a saw if any mitre cuts or length adjustments are needed. Some kits might require a hammer and nails or pins for additional security.
How Do I Prepare My Walls for Panelling?
Ensure your walls are clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any wallpaper and repair any significant holes or dents. A primer might be necessary for certain wall conditions.
Can Wall Panelling Kits Be Customised?
While many kits come in standard sizes and designs, there are many customisation options in terms of size, shape, or colour finishes. You can also modify the design to your liking with panel moulding strips, dado rail or other interior moulding.
Are Wall Panelling Kits Suitable for High Moisture Areas?
MDF is moisture-resistant but not waterproof. For high moisture areas like bathrooms, it's important to bear in mind the level of moisture, to check if the environment is suitable.
How Do I Maintain or Clean Wall Panelling?
Regular dusting and occasional wiping with a damp cloth should suffice. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage the finish.
These kits offer a simple yet effective way to enhance the aesthetic of any room, suitable for various skill levels and design preferences.
